Hütters Plan is obsolete: "Every game a final"

In the current sports studio of ZDF, Virkus clearly made his view of the coach question at Borussia Mönchengladbach. There is no plan B, no alternative to Hütter, emphasized the sports director of the foal on Saturday night and instead took the team in the duty: "First and foremost, the boys have to go to their own nose. It is always easy to question the coach "

Clear words after a painful defeat, because the 2: 3 at VFB Stuttgart a few hours earlier not exactly the hope of a fast turnaround in the relegation battle. It was the fifth defeat in the ninth competitive match 2022 - only twice the Borussen went as a winner from the square.

In Stuttgart, it looked more than 35 minutes after three points after Alassane Plea and Marcus Thuram had completed two interesting attacks. But from the leadership, the eleven did not pull self-confidence from the Lower Rhine, but broke back and left the cutting of the households. "It's true that Stuttgart has brought us so far with this passion and this emotion so far that we lose the game," said Hütter and quickly came to the core problem of Borussia. Because emotions and passion lack the team far too often, as Saturday night.

VFB in almost all statistics in front

Eight scores of the guests were opposed at the end 19 of the Swabia and the superiority of the penultimate is also reflected in numbers. Stuttgart played more passports (464 to 324), had more possession (57 percent) and won more bunks (54 percent). Again and again Mönchengladbach lost the ball in the simplest way and made his opponent strongly. "We did not manage to play the counterpart situations as well as in the first half," analyzed Hütter.

The plan, with two wins against the cell cart of Stuttgart and next week Hertha BSC a lot to gain a lot of distance to the relegation places is at any rate. "Every game is now a final for us," Well-known Hütter and his professionals found significant words. At the latest after this defeat, all warning lamps have to light up around the Borussia Park.

Hütter is now powerful pressure, even if Virkus does not yet publicly think about an alternative. However, in Frankfurt, where the Austrian coaches from his time at Borussia, Hütter fought in his early days with start-up difficulties - and then managed the trend towards the international business. In order to keep the league, however, Hütter and Eintracht never feared. That would be a small success now.
